Throughout any major ground operation the need to safely transport
troops from one point to another through a constant bombardment of
small arms fire is often times a constant problem. Armored personnel
carriers, also known as APCs for short, help to solve this problem.

When Ubrikkian designed the Republic's r1-series repulsortanks they
also designed an APC based off of the same chassis. This APC was
equipped with armor strong enough to absorb or deflect most blaster
fire from rifles and repeaters, thus protecting the squad of eight
soldiers inside.

The only major modification made to the basic chassis was the
addition of a loading ramp at the rear of the vehicle in addition
to the main hatch on the top.
